In order to
transport heat-sensitive material, you might be interested
in selecting a refrigerated truck rental. Two of the major
brand names that deal in this market are Ryder and Penske.
Also, you may be able to find a local truck rental company
that has refrigerated trucks in addition their regular
trucks. These trucks are good for transporting food and
drinks. For example, if you are a farm owner who needs to
transport a crop to several different stores, you might not
need to own a refrigerated truck because you would not use
it very often. A rental would be a better option. This truck
would help you keep your crop fresh while getting it from
place to place.

At Ryder,
you can choose between a refrigerated truck rental or a
refrigerated trailer rental. The truck comes in several
sizes, the smallest being 14 feet long and the longest is 24
feet long. The other selections are in two foot increments
between the limits. At the Ryder website, you can reserve
the truck for the proper dates and locations.

One caution
about renting from here is that the refrigerated truck
rental has to be picked up from and returned to the same
location. So, when selecting the time you will have the
truck, that should factor into your decision making.
Additionally, Ryder offers trailers. These are much bigger
than the trucks. And, unlike the trucks that you can drive,
the trailers must be hooked up to your own vehicle. So, you
need to be sure that your vehicle will support the weight
and girth of the trailer you select.

Penske
offers a refrigerated truck rental program as well. Penske's
trucks are between 18 and 26 feet, so if you need something
a little bigger, this might be the best company for you.
They also have some trucks that require a CDL and others
that do not. So, be sure you choose the correct one when
making your reservation.

Penske also
offers an option that is different from Ryder when it comes
to pick up and drop off. Penske will allow you to pick up in
one place and drop off in another. This may come in handy if
you are trying to save on cost because you will not have the
truck rented for quite so long, and you will save on gas.
Whatever you choose, be sure you can have the necessary
ability and equipment to handle the refrigerated truck
rental.
